Have you ever watched National Geographic shark specials and wondered what it would be like to be lowered into the ocean in a metal cage? In Port Lincoln, you can make this dream a reality through the many shark tours that head out to the nearby Neptune Islands, a popular place to find great white sharks. Here, you'll be outfitted in a scuba suit and lowered into the ocean in a large metal cage. The crew attract the sharks by putting dead fish in the water, and you'll have the best seat in the house to watch these incredible creatures feed. Be sure to bring a camera, because this is a once in a lifetime experience! Many of the tours also stop for guests to swim among Australian sea-lions, and some even let you get in the water with giant blue fin tuna. This might not seem too nerve-wracking after swimming with a great white shark, but keep in mind these tuna can grow to be over six hundred pounds!
